interesting summary



duduspace11 "Well, since we are estimating costs, Pokemon Red/Blue did cost Nintendo about $50m to make back in 1996"

Mr Puggsly: "Hehe, I said good profit. You said big profit. Frankly, not losing money is what I meant by good. Don't get hung up on semantics"

Azzanation: "PS5 wouldn't sold out at launch without scalpers."

I don't think i have seen a Sony fan EVER criticize a first party game from Sony. In fact, I feel Sony fans overhype games way more than Nintendo fans.

Yes, your imparciality impress me so much... Just go to the GT7 thread and see some Sony fan bashing the greatest sony IP. Or a lot of fans complaining about the TLOU:R.

This post should probably be taken into consideration as the reason behind this thread and Kupo not being able to post replies to comments in here for a few days. I really dis-like when the term fanboy is used as a negative, being a fan of something should be a great thing really, I'd happily consider myself a fanboy of a number of systems. It's only when the fandom turns to chauvinistic devotion to 1 system as a superior to all else is when things go downhill, which a number of fanboys of various things are not.

tl:dr Being a fan of something = good, wanting something you aren't a fan of to fail = not good.

I'd be lying if I said it wasn't what inspired me to create this thread.  Too many fanboys with a raging hard on that don't want to see the faults of their preferred company is the reason why I posted the thread.

Although, I posted this thread before I was banned, so it wasn't in any sort of retaliation.



Lol nailed it!



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Every company/fanboy has it's bad sides, thinking one group is any different or better than another is where issues start to come in tho. If you start to think that one group of  "raging hard" fanboys are less obnoxious or just not annoying in the slightest then you are biased towards either that group or the company they're defending/attacking I think.

wrote a long rant.... was too ranty

Basically if you think that the following are fair true statements about systems

-PC has no first party devs therefore it has no games worth playing or exclusives

-A gaming PC costs thousands and no one can afford one

-PS3 haz no gaems was a fair statement to make after the first 6-12 months of the consoles launch had passed

-Vita haz no gaems

-You mentioned RRoD as a reason against buying an Xbox360 after 2010

-You argue that the 3ds is a bad system because it doesn't have 10 more analogue sticks because you need 1 for each finger and your dick to fully enjoy a game

-You ever state that Nintendo needs New IPs and that people are bored of Mario being in games.

-You try to argue that certain sales of Wii motion games/Kinect software somehow doesn't count as a sale because of the fact that the buyer of it isn't what you consider a "gamer"

If you've basically ever considered any of the above to even be remotely true or have any bearing on sales of consoles then you have a bias against that company, simple as that. Also if you think any one of them is more offensive or wrong than the rest you are probably a little bit overly fanboyesque of the offended system.

Yup seems legit.

I didn't post the topic because of a single company.  I'm a Sony fanboy myself, but I'm regularly in Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft threads showing my disapproval of the companies or sometimes fans actions.  As I said there are too many people who will turn a blind eye towards their preferred company.  The only brand new consoles I own or plan to own until later for right now are the Sony consoles, so a Sony fanboy cherry picking what he want from a post ignoring everything else that makes the company look bad just annoyed me.  That sort of bias is what inspired me to create the topic.  Nintendo fans and Microsoft fans have done it as well, just this is when I decided to create a topic about it because Sony fans are the worst about defending shitty practices from the company.

Then you are definitely one of the more sensible ones....or more objective for a better choice of words.

You sound not unlike the people who were running about saying to get off the Titanic while people happily sat back and claimed their ship could destroy an even bigger iceberg if it wanted too heh :) It's awesome if you get a few people to listen and admit that their company isn't perfect and the others aren't all evil but it's all the one ship you're riding on at the end of the day so of course in arguments when you are shown to be a playstation fan you unfortunatly know what people expect you to think of the mistakes of Sony.
